I have three tables.
 Order, 
Location, 
Order_Location where  Order_Location  is table that holds
 many-to-many relation.
 Order has 
List<Location>. Location has property called 
city. Using 
HQL (Hibernate 3.6 for Java), I want to get all the locations for a particular 
order, 
ordered by the 
city.
In hbm file, List<Location> is mapped using idbag. Though I got the HQL, the generated SQL query is having join to [i]Location [/u]and 
Order_Location  table twice which I feel is overhead. Also, because of this, 
SELECT is happening from first instance of table and 
ORDER BY is happening using the second instance of 
Location table
What am I doing wrong here?
Code:
SELECT o.locationList FROM Order o
join o.locationList locList  
where o.orderId = 1
order by locList.city desc
translates to following which has inner join that is unnecessary
Code:
select
  order4_.LOC_ID as order1_355_,
  order4_.LOC_CODE as order2_355_,
  order4_.CITY as order3_355_,
  order4_.CITY_LONG_NAME as order4_355_ 
from
   sche.order order0_ 
   inner join
   sche.order_location order1_ 
   on order0_.ORDER_ID=order1_.ORDER_ID 
   inner join
   sche.location order2_ 
   on order1_.LOC_ID=order2_.LOC_ID 
   inner join
   sche.order_location order3_ 
   on order0_.ORDER_ID=order3_.ORDER_ID 
   inner join
   sche.location order4_ 
   on order3_.LOC_ID=order4_.LOC_ID 
 where
   order0_.ORDER_ID=1 
 order by
   order2_.city desc
Following are the mapping files
Code:
